⚽ What is a Football Court?

A football court (also called a mini-football pitch or 5-a-side football field) is a smaller version of a traditional football field. It’s designed for casual games, training, and fast-paced matches with fewer players.


📏 Standard Football Court Dimensions

  • 5-a-side court: 25m – 42m long, 15m – 25m wide

  • 7-a-side court: 45m – 60m long, 25m – 35m wide

  • Goal size: 3m wide × 2m high

  • Perimeter fencing: Recommended for safety

  • Lighting: Essential for evening play


🧱 Types of Football Court Surfaces

Choosing the right surface impacts gameplay, durability, and player safety:

  1. Artificial Turf (Most Popular)

    • Low maintenance

    • All-weather use

    • Professional look

  2. Natural Grass

    • Requires high maintenance

    • Not suitable for intense, daily use

  3. Acrylic Flooring (Indoor)

    • Great for futsal courts

    • Durable and smooth for quick movements


🏗️ Football Court Construction Process
